Korede Bello's "Belloved" art.

Nigerian pop star Korede Bello is now a graduate!

In a recent interview, the singer talked about Journalism and what he hopes to achieve.

"I am a student of journalism but am slave to music. I nursed a dream to become a radio presenter in the past but music is my passion for now.

I plan to star in some Nollywood films as I have been presented some scripts, which I am presently considering. But I have just dropped my debut album and I want people to see me as musician enough before I veer into movies."

On life as a superstar in NIJ,

" I am grateful that I am still in NIJ if I were in a University of Lagos undergraduate it would have been harder to manage fame because of the frenzy. NIJ allows me be myself, everyone knew me as a wannabe musician who became a star. My lecturers have been really supportive of my career. I am not a stubborn student so they don’t have any issues and they help me maintain my sanity."

Congrats to the new graduate!
